The American Heart Association has now formally voted to join other societies forming a new professional certification board for CV medicine, independent of the American Board of Internal Medicine.

The new board requirements will"de-emphasize timed, high stakes performance exams in the continuous certification process and instead will focus on learning assessments to identify gaps in current knowledge or skills," the statement noted. "We enthusiastically join with our colleagues in proposing a new professional certification body to accredit cardiovascular professionals called the American Board of Cardiovascular Medicine," said the association’s volunteer president Joseph C. Wu, MD.
